Nate Bargatze: Hello World

Nate Bargatze doesn't yell, shout, or curse - AND, here's something novel: He's actually funny! And SMART about it too!

In the past several month's I have gone through "comics" like cheap toilet paper - tearing them up and tossing them out when they don't work. I will give a comic 5 - 10 minutes to make me smile or laugh out loud - and if they are not funny to me, I stop watching. My time is too important to waste on people who think that by talking LOUDLY or degrading others for what they call humor, that we are going to buy it.

He respects his fans - that's refreshing ('cause I am one).

What is funny as hell, I mean heck, is that his zip code is 37138. Now THAT is funny!

Keep up the great work, Nate!!! We appreciate you!

I saw several of Nate Bargatze's clips on Facebook a few months back so I looked him up. When I found him on Netflix, I watched both specials immediately, and then this special as soon as it released. I love this guy's comedy. I love that his material is so relatable, and Lord help me, I love that it's so wholesome. His bit about birth order is spot on, and it's hilarious.

I came home in a bad mood today and thought, "I bet watching some Nate Bargatze will lighten up my mood" and yup, sure enough, it did. (When I want to sit and stew in it, I watch Tom Segura, but that's a review for another day.)

It's really so much more a display of talent to be able to make people laugh without getting crude. Hey, the crude stuff is also funny, but it's really refreshing when you can watch something like this without having an F bomb constantly thrown at you or having every other joke be about sex. I have actually only ever heard his clips across streaming radio comedy channels. This was my first full stand-up set from him, and from other reviews, I see there's some Netflix material as well. I'm sure several of those are where the clips came from, but I am looking forward to watching those full sets as well.

Aside from the fact that good clean comedy is a rarity these days, Nate's mind for telling a story in the funniest way possible such a gift. This special was so refreshing! The way he can make fun of his family and himself and have you come out loving all of them is so great. There were so many great bits in this, from birth order jokes to attempting to play golf with your wife to...bald eagles touching your head (I mean, who makes a joke about that, lol)...Hello World is just the relief from the everyday stress of life that we all need. Okay, no they did not pay me to write this. I'm just excited for everyone else to experience it too. If you're not already on Prime Video, go start a free 30-day trial and check it out. Okay, no, Amazon didn't pay me to write this either, I swear.

I've heard this dude many times on Sirius FM, but I've never seen him live or on TV for an entire routine. I was pleasantly surprised. Even if every joke wasn't laugh out loud funny, there was a smile on my face the entire time. There were plenty of laugh out loud moments as well. Most good comedians are relatable but this guy is the most relatable I've ever heard. The jokes all come from real stuff, which is always the funniest stuff. It was 100% an added bonus that he doesn't need foul language or risque jokes to be funny. It's so much harder to keep a crowd laughing when you can't resort to the lowest common denominator, or so it seems with most comedians these days.
